US officials discuss with Musk the use of Starlink in Ukraine – Blinken

The US government held talks with SpaceX founder Elon Musk regarding the use of Starlink satellite internet in Ukraine.

US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken reported that Ukrinform referred to Reuters.

In an interview with NBC News, which will air on Sunday, he was asked if US officials would ask Musk not to limit the use of Starlink capabilities for the Ukrainian military.

“I can’t share any of the conversations we’ve had—other than conversations,” Blinken said.

As reported, at the beginning of February, information appeared that the American company SpaceX has taken measures to prevent the Ukrainian military from using the Starlink satellite Internet to control drones.

Deputy Prime Minister – Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov noted that there are no problems with the operation of Starlink terminals in Ukraine, which provide critical infrastructure with stable Internet, “unbreakable points” and allow Ukrainians to stay in touch with their relatives.
